One of the things that makes St Peters unique is the strong sense of community and a rich legacy of multi-generational Old Scholars; Old Scholars who, thanks to their own positive experiences as students, have been able to offer the same transformational St Peters education to their children.

In February this year, the wine and cheese event organised by SPOSA and St Peters Community Engagement team was an opportunity for current parents who are also Old Scholars to come together and celebrate shared experiences. The event was held in the Performing Arts Centre Amphitheatre, a lovely setting that provided the perfect backdrop for an evening of canapés and wine.

The Senior String Quartet provided the entertainment for the evening, showcasing the incredible musical talent that St Peters is known for. The quartet’s performance was a perfect accompaniment to the relaxed and convivial atmosphere of the event, as close to fifty Old Scholar parents (from peer years 1983 to 1998) were welcomed by the Head of College, Tim Kotzur, and then mingled and shared stories.

The evening was a testament to the strong sense of community that exists at St Peters, and the deep connection that Old Scholars feel to the College. It was a reminder that a St Peters education is not just a oneoff experience, but something that can be passed down through generations, creating a lasting legacy of excellence and achievement.
